Singtam
Basibiyalo had been providing opportunities for every performer around
and beyond the state since long time and we should come up with our own
‘record book’, we had listened to English song, English poetry or even a
Hindi poem recitation that rarely find place at such literary and
cultural events.
We
had enjoyed classical dances that are more or less limited to dance
competitions; we had seen 5 year old dancing at this stage and this time
around to watch a twin from Dalapchand SS was very enjoyable, said
Mohan Pradhan ‘Neraj’, Sansthapak Singtam Basibiyalo. Our Basibiyalo is
open to anyone and we just believe in providing platforms, we are
neither a political nor a money-making organisation, added Pradhan.
